Following the devastating news of the passing of Sayuri earlier today, we go through all of the anime songs from the 28-year-old artist’s career, which was filled with beautiful songs despite her young age.

She had her first solo live in March 2015 in Tokyo, while she released her first single “Mikazuki” in August of the same year. She was 18 at the time of her major debut. The song was used as the ending theme for the Rampo Kitan: Game of Laplace anime.

She also performed the single on THE FIRST TAKE.

She released her second single in February 2016, and the song is titled “Sore wa Chiisana Hikari no Youna” (“It’s like a small light”) Yuki Kajiura composed and wrote the lyrics, and the song was used as the ending theme for the Erased TV anime.

Sayuri’s fifth single was “Heikousen” (“Parallel Line”), released in March 2017. The song was used as the ending theme song for the Scum’s Wish anime adaptation.

Her sixth single “Tsuki to Hanataba” (“Moon and Bouquet”) was released in February 2018, and the song was used as the ending theme for the Fate/Extra Last Encore anime.
